| Abstract | The cardiac protective effects of asiatic acid (AA) and maslinic acid (MA) in diabetic mice were examined. These triterpenoids at 0.1 or 0.2% of the diet were supplied to diabetic mice for 12 weeks. The AA or MA treatments decreased plasma glucose and HbA1c levels, and creatine phosphokinase and lactate dehydrogenase activities in diabetic mice (p < 0.05). AA or MA intake increased the amount deposited in the heart which retained the cardiac glutathione content and reduced the production of reactive oxygen species, Nε-(carboxymethyl)-lysine, pentosidine, methylglyoxal, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in the hearts of diabetic mice (p < 0.05). AA or MA intake lowered plasma von Willebrand factor and fibrinogen levels, and factor VII activity (p < 0.05), also AA or MA intake maintained circulating antithrombin-III and protein C activities (p < 0.05). AA or MA treatments down-regulated cardiac expression of NADPH oxidase, aldose reductase, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65 and p-p38; as well as reserving glyoxalase 1 expression (p < 0.05). These two compounds at only 0.2% lowered cardiac expression of NF-κB p50, p-ERK1/2 and the receptor of the advanced glycation endproduct (p < 0.05). These findings support the conclusion that the supplement of these triterpenoids could protect the heart under diabetic conditions via attenuating glycative injury and coagulatory disorders. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
